Wrestling LIVE THREAD: Penn State vs. Iowa

[bowandarrow]

Beau too small and too timid probably.
Sall good.

 

[okinburg1]

Murin wins 4-1
PSU now leads 10-3

 

[nitlion6]

That is a good win for Max.

 

[js8793]

frankly, by Murin/Bartlett standards, that was a drubbing. great match from max.

 

[johnstownsteel]

Murin sucks out loud he will never go anywhere at Nationals or big tens.

I actually think he AAs this year.

 

[PSUcup1]

No he isn't. That is pure strategy and it works now, 4 times in a row.

I’m with JS. That match by RBY made no sense. He can take him down at Will. And If I was the ref he’d have been down 1-0 after one

 

[Hotshoe]

all he would have to do is attack 2 more times and that match isn't close. just because it works doesn't mean there isn't something that works better.

geez i'm surprised at the push back. maybe i have a higher opinion of rby than you do?

He's won 4 in a row and is a National Champion. Good grief.

 

[NittanyChris]

No excuses there. Murin was good. Beau has to figure a way to generate some offense against taller guys. He’ll get there.

 

[PAgeologist]

Beau too small and too timid probably.
Sall good.

Too small. Yes. Too timid. No. It seems he just doesn't have the strength or size to deal with the upper 149s. I think he goes on a tear at 141.

Murin sucks out loud he will never go anywhere at Nationals or big tens.

I see him finishing AA this year

 

[mcpat]

If we could take one at 157 or 165… it would be huge. Keep the crowd out of it.

 

[johnstownsteel]

Yeah good win. Would liked to have seen more from Beau but in comparison to Murin in experience and at his gym, I shouldn’t be to hard on him.

 

[District four]

You should watch the rby match again

Figures you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Lol. Typical Iowa fan

 

[Norm Petersin]

Brand Bros are d bags

 

[Hawkeye4lifee]

Murin sucks out loud he will never go anywhere at Nationals or big tens.

Moronic take

 

[mcpat]

He's won 4 in a row and is a National Champion. Good grief.

All true but the match he just wrestled was puzzling.

 

[js8793]

I’m with JS. That match by RBY made no sense. He can take him down at Will. And If I was the ref he’d have been down 1-0 after one

frankly, he's lucky that those stalemates take so long because it creates the illusion that he's doing more than he is. if desanto would shoot, then back right out, then shoot again, he might have gotten that extra point.

and that's my larger point. rby is on a different level, but he's creating a path to victory for desanto if he gets an aggressive official. he got outshot like 15-1 in that match. doesn't need to be that way.

It’s funny to see how much free real estate Cael has between their ears. You can see how demonstrative they are toward him from their corner…

 

[PAgeologist]

The way Young and AM wrestle, we definitely got a shot at both.

Honestly wouldn't be shocked to see Berge beat AM. He looks so much more active at 165.

 

[District four]

Moronic take

Really your an idiot

 

[okinburg1]

0-0 end of 1st (again)

 

[mcpat]

Good first period by BearClaw. 0-0 and the only one close to scoring was BearClaw.

 

[District four]

Really your an idiot

Anyone who would make a comparison between what rby does on top and with murin hanging on doesn't know wrestling but then again your an Iowa fan go figure

 

[okinburg1]

Young up 1-0 after the escape

 

[mcpat]

1-0 Young after two. BearClaw has to get out on bottom.

 

[okinburg1]

1-0 Young end of 2nd

 

[johnstownsteel]

I think Barraclough should have gone neutral.

 

[mcpat]

BearClaw HAS to get hand control. Can’t just come up and get returned hard to the mat.

 

[okinburg1]

Young still on top w/1:20 left

 

[AndEEss]

No stall warning?

 

[nitlion6]

Question. What kind of advice was Telford giving Young there at the end of the second? Kaleb, Kaleb lay on him man, just put your weight on him and lay there.

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

Young is doing 100% of nothing.

 

[NittanyChris]

Stalling on Young, pushing him OOB!!!

 

[WreslingFan0314]

ADS didn't look pleased at the handshake. Too bad.

That match is the kind that could drive AD over the edge. He went at RBY hard and couldn't finish any shots. It was almost as if RBY was toying him, knowing he could fight off everything Desanto had. The lack of offense from RBY early on, likely only frustrated AD more. I can definitely feel for AD. He's wired a little short anyway, and in that atmosphere, having RBY deny everything and eke out a win had to have him close to the edge. You know AD wanted to fight him, but held back. I actually give him credit for not boiling over.

 

[PSUcup1]

Ridiculous Young hasn’t been warned

 

[mcpat]

Stalling on Young, pushing him OOB!!!

I couldn’t believe it wasnt

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

So, just no stalls at all? Cool.

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

I think Barraclough should have gone neutral.

Well, based on what we've seen from BearClaw on bottom, it's difficult to disagree.

 

[AndEEss]

The Claw is infuriating. How has he not improved? How is he so bad at this?

 

[GogglesPaizano]

Torture
